DASA is also interested in ideas involving novel approaches to the data management and subsequent identification of issues using existing technology.

DASA is expecting, in the long term, that the new technology will be scalable across the whole force, and to be compatible with the realities of military usage, such as robustness, and cyber security.

DASA said, “By completing the Capability Submission Form neither the Government nor yourselves are committing to anything, but your submissions will be used to help focus the direction of the work and the requirements for a possible themed call in this area in the future.”

It added, “We are not interested in literature reviews, paper-based studies, preventative medicine, non-technical solutions or marginal improvements to existing capabilities. We are not interested in static scanning technologies or invasive technologies. We are not interested in any novel theories for biomarkers or proxies for emerging issues which do not have a sound established scientific basis in the literature.”
